In June 2010, Deputy Lane LaCaze was involved in the arrest of Jamie Desadier, during which his 11-year-old daughter, Preslee Scallion, was transported to the Natchitoches Sheriff’s Office 911 Center. There, she was subjected to a strip search without parental consent. Deputy LaCaze’s role in ordering or facilitating the search was contested, with testimony indicating he may have instructed that all female passengers be searched. This led to a lawsuit alleging violations of constitutional rights. The court found genuine issues of material fact regarding Deputy LaCaze’s involvement, and the case proceeded to trial. The final outcome is not detailed in the available information.
